My reader (UBReader) can sort the books by Title or by Author or by date added. As for the OPF file - Nope, not there. There is not one OPF file on my tablet, and yet the reader can pull Author and Title from the metadata for sorting - and I can pull up the "description" to read as well. That is pretty much all it can do. OH, I can view the cover as well, as long as it is part of the EPUB data. It does not use separate image file (I've tested it by using on image in the EPUB and another Image File as cover and it only looks at the one in the EPUB.) So my reader only uses the EPUB file itself, Not the JPG and not the OPF - so I do not even transfer them to the tablet. And it access the metadata somehow.
